“It's been almost two years since I got the worse phone call of my life. I didn't know how to process suicide, and I didn't have any support either. While looking on the internet for help I came across Six Feet Over – they were such a blessing, it felt as if my Dad sent me their way. They were supportive and helpful, and if it wasn't for them, I wouldn't have been able to give my Dad a proper farewell. For that I'm forever thankful.”

“Six Feet Over helped me during the process of getting back on track after the loss of my husband. I didn’t know where to turn to or even what the next steps in life would be. I was scared and lost because of the financial responsibilities my husband was leaving behind. Six Feet Over went above and beyond to help me and my family during my time in need. I appreciate everything Katie and her team did for me even when I just needed to vent. Having someone who been through exactly what I was going through was a major help.”

“In a time that my world imploded, and I was in a fog of grief, darkness and fear, they were a beacon of light. I had no idea how to manage the next minute of life, let alone things like funeral arrangements or how I was going to pay for any of it. They were a literal lifeline for me. I wish I had better words to describe the organization and the staff. Incredibly kind, caring, generous, understanding, reassuring, and the help they gave me is immeasurable on all levels. I am and will be forever grateful for the help they gave me.”

“Six feet over has been very helpful, kind and sincere in helping me deal with the death of my sister. They offered to get counseling set up for the family. They kept in constant contact with me on the progress of the application. They reached out to me to make sure the family was healing and to offer any services that they could set up. My application was approved and this took a huge financial burden off of me for this unexpected expense of a funeral. I am very grateful to have had the opportunity to be in touch with such a wonderful organization.”

“The financial assistance helped me because I lost my job the day he died as well. I worked with him at our family business based on his sole services in mental health to others. It has taken me several months to get a teaching job as I had to get my recertification that had expired completing 150 hours and then apply for jobs. I was fortunate to get a job a month ago will be starting my job this fall. This assistance helped me in a time of emotional and financial survival mode. I had to sell my home as well as I could not afford it. This assistance gave me some comfort in one less worry with paying for his cremations and I am forever grateful.”
